Pink Cliffs : Round boulders and shadows . . .
The Pink Cliffs Reserve is about 140km from Melbourne CBD. It was originally man made but is now considered one of Victoria's natural wonders. The multi-coloured soft granite exposed as a moonscape surface in the central portion of the reserve is the best known feature hence its name, Pink Cliffs.
This geological reserve offers hills of fine clay with an almost talcum-powder texture. The pinkness is more intense when the area is moist, i.e, shortly after a rain or shower.
These round boulders are located near the right entrance to the area. With some imagination they appear to be over-baked sour dough buns or even fossillized dinosaur eggs.
